‘Hitchintak Abhiyan’: VHP starts online drive to recruit volunteers in Bajrang Dal
The Vishva Hindu Parishad (VHP) on Thursday launched an online drive to bring in at least 50 lakh new volunteers in the age group of 15-35 years to its youth wing Bajrang Dal. A nationwide drive to connect new “well-wishers” of the VHP to the main outfit would also be rolled out on November 6, Secretary General of the RSS affiliate Milind Parande announced at a press conference here, after launching the ‘Join Bajrang Dal‘ campaign.
“We are launching Join Bajrang Dal Abhiyan today. Under this campaign, those in the age group of 15-35 years can join Bajrang Dal by filling up the Google form, the link of which has been made available on our website,” the VHP Secretary-General said.
“We will send the list of names of those filling the Google form to the Bajrang Dal’s respective units. These units will subsequently contact them and call for a physical meeting,” he said. After interactions, the new volunteers will be provided training and then “connected” to the organization, Parande said. “Our target is to bring in at least 50 lakh youths,” he added.
When asked what kind of training the new volunteers will undergo, Parande said “the Bajrang Dal raises karyakarta (workers), not military or police“. “Bajrang Dal is an organization that works under the framework of the law. We mainly provide training for personality development. People can come and see,” he said.
“Our training programme includes lessons on history, dharma (religion), Sanskriti (culture), self-defense techniques, yoga, and sports,” he added. Parande also announced that the VHP will launch another nationwide campaign to bring into its fold new ‘hitchintaks‘ (well-wishers). “We are going to launch a much bigger campaign, ‘Hitchintak Abhiyan’, from November 6,” he said, adding that “in VHP, the word ‘member’ is not used. It’s hitchintak.”
